mandolin intermediate

In this lesson

Playing over the waterfall is usually a bad idea and can result in serious bodily harm, unless you're talking about the fiddle tune. Enjoy this one in the key of D!

    Ben, this one finally made the timing click for me. Been fighting it for a month. Thank you.

    Recording yourself is humbling but it's the fastest fix I've found.

    Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.

    There's a slower track in the resources for this one. If you want it slower still, let me know and I'll cut one.

    Not just you. I still count this one out loud and I've been at it four years.
